As a Product Innovation Manager, he\u2019ll work directly with customers to determine their needs, using his real-world expertise to guide solutions within Point of Rental\u2019s industry-leading innovations.<\/p>\n
\u201cJohn has an incredible wealth of knowledge about rental processes, business, and the industry as a whole,\u201d said Point of Rental CEO Wayne Harris. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to see the impact he\u2019ll have on the processes that drive Point of Rental.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter spending over 30 years in every aspect of the equipment rental industry, now is a great time for a change,\u201d said Wooten. \u201cI have a passion for continually improving each aspect of a business, and Point of Rental gives me the opportunity to improve efficiency and profitability for not just one, but thousands of rental companies around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wooten started his rental career in 1983, when he was handed a job application by his father while the pair was renting a post hole digger. He worked in the industry for 20 years before taking a mid-life retirement in Maui, and came back ready to rent. After joining All-Star Rents in 2001 as their general manager, he became the company\u2019s CEO in 2011. When Kathryn deVries Mitchell became the third-generation deVries to run All-Star Rents late in 2018, Wooten became available to pursue other opportunities.<\/p>\n
He has also helped shape the future of the industry as a member of the American Rental Association\u2019s Executive Committee from 2018-19. Prior to that, he was a part of ARA\u2019s Construction U Task Force, the Rental Show Committee, and was chairman of ARA\u2019s General Tool and Equipment Special Interest Group.<\/p>\n
